Jeremiah 27:9 in Context — Jeremiah 27

7 Toutes les nations lui seront soumises, à lui, à son fils, et au fils de son fils, jusqu’à ce que le temps de son pays arrive, et que des nations puissantes et de grands rois l’asservissent.

8 Si une nation, si un royaume ne se soumet pas à lui, à Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, et ne livre pas son cou au joug du roi de Babylone, je châtierai cette nation par l’épée, par la famine et par la peste, dit l’Éternel, jusqu’à ce que je l’aie anéantie par sa main.

9 Et vous, n’écoutez pas vos prophètes, vos devins, vos songeurs, vos astrologues, vos magiciens, qui vous disent: Vous ne serez point asservis au roi de Babylone!

10 Car c’est le mensonge qu’ils vous prophétisent, afin que vous soyez éloignés de votre pays, afin que je vous chasse et que vous périssiez.

11 Mais la nation qui pliera son cou sous le joug du roi de Babylone, et qui lui sera soumise, je la laisserai dans son pays, dit l’Éternel, pour qu’elle le cultive et qu’elle y demeure.
